i would guess a fancy food safe silicone mold. either home made or purchased. poured candy melts in it.
sweetjustice you are probably right, but since I have not seen any molds like that around, I would make the lollipop numbers plain then pipe the scroll work and brush with a combo luster dust and petal dust mixture.
I'm guessing they made the mold themselves from FDA approved silicone you can purchase it Michael's craft store. I have used it before to make a skull head and you can bake in it up to 350 even though you wouldn't with the chocolates. That is my guess. Seems like I have seen those numbers at AC Moore before.
I am actually guessing that she just molded regular 1s, 2s, and 3s and then piped on top of them with a chocolate in a squeeze bottle or pipping bag to get the 3 dimensional scroll work! Even if they didnt do that I bet you could do it that way! Just make sure you candy coating is not too thin, but honestly I am no expert and I would try it first to see if it works
Looking at the brown one, it is really really clear that it was molded NOT piped.
